    Quick Vestratto Forge induction heater

    Hi guys John here. I'm really sorry but right now I'd ask you to NOT use the Tornado with your FORGE induction heater until we find out what the problem is. We know a few things that it isn't - like over-heating etc. but it is beyond me until I get engineering support in the morning. In any...

    Hi - our site is going live for 420 at 9 am For those who've been hanging out with us for a while you know that more often than not we nail it. When we do have room for improvement we have replaced entire production runs free of charge. The Tornado bundle gives folks a chance to be part of the...

    Anvil Ordering & Shipping

    Hi there Please send me an email directly at mumfordjohn7@gmail.com. John Sorry if we've missed the odd email. We answer many a day and sometimes something gets pushed down in the Inbox. As to the waitlist. We are being coy about the size because we didn't want to tip our hand to our...

    Hi There John here. Thanks for putting this together. This is FANTASTIC. The advantage of your method over what I had been doing is that, by locking the condenser in the oven with the herb chamber, you have aligned the condenser square and concentric for insertion in the stem. Thanks for not...

    Noice!! I am always surprised how much vapour the Anvil produces. It is also true, that because the Anvil is convection biased a little looser pack will really make your herb go further. If you come down with the torch to the copper line just below the gap you can still get a full extraction...

    Hi there. John here. The easiest way to ensure the airflow valve is open all the way is to slip the oven off the valve. The condenser will come along for the ride. Now screw the airflow valve all the way into the stem. Re-attach the oven. Install the condenser by slipping it into the oven and...

    It looks like you purchased a perfectly good used December Revision of the Founders Unit. You probably do want to get some new o-rings etc. Provided you were sent the upgraded airflow valve your reseller received as one of our first 25 customers, you have a good operational kit. The airflow is...

    Hi guys, I think the confusion is that we have a Mailchimp list, for example to receive the Sunday Post, and a separate Waitlist for those who were interested in buying in the future. We assumed folks on the existing Mailchimp list who were in the Founders group wouldn't sign up to buy another...

    Hi there. John here. We sent out a first round of emails today. A second is going tomorrow. We honestly think we can clear through the backlog in relatively short order based on our current capacity. I wouldn't hang out just for drop information but would definitely stick around for the...

    Hi there. John here. Just to clarify on a couple of valued relationships that we have built over the last year. We currently have a separate allocation for a very small group of Dealers based on numbers they have previously communicated to us. These will be interleaved into the overall...

    Hi there John here. Great science. The herb chamber outer wall is offset from the inner wall of the oven so that the conduction effect is limited to the contact through the threads. This introduces a thermal lag time between the outer oven and the inner chamber. The lag keeps the herb cooler...

    Hi there. John here. Great question. As you may or may not know I made the Founders Edition by myself in my own shop. The success of the Founders performance wise, combined with the need to improve build quality, has led me to work with an excellent partner that I refer to as The Factory. We...

    Hi there John here. Sorry I may not have worded my reply correctly. I have strived to make the Anvil extremely repeatable. Each individual naturally decides their own dose. My goal is to provide you a consistent extraction which is the engineers purview, not the amount or strain, which is the...

    Hi there. Its John here. I'm going to address the bit about micro-dosing and ignore the dead horse that we've been beating for hours. One of the things that makes the Anvil unique is that the temperature sensors are located internally to the herb chamber, not the outer shell. Because of this...

    I'm not avoiding releasing the pricing. I'm releasing the pricing when I send the emails to our wait list later in the day as I have said from the outset. Just cause folks stamp their feet and get red in the face doesn't change my plan at all. Spoiler alert. Its the same +/- a few bucks as the...

    Hi there. John here. During heat cycles the exposed pure copper develops a patina from the oxides on its surface. The thickness of the oxides determines the color spectrum of the light reflected. The initial silverfish sheen noticed with the induction heater will unfortunately pass over time...

    Hi there. I have always maintained that we intend to charge the same as an Omni. Thats where we are. Further I post every week and good bad or indifferent keep people informed. We have made clear our commitment to the wait listed folks that they will get the first crack at the units. We have...

    Hi there. 1/2 is notionally 0.05g and full is 0.1g. Practically the Anvil works a lot better if it is packed a bit looser. She is biased heavily to convection so no need to pack densely. If you jam the bowls you can increase by about 20 percent no problem. The airflow control will be diminished...
